Nvidia Nemotron 3.5 lightning and NeMo Switchyard
NVIDIA has introduced Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, an efficient open model for agentic AI, alongside NeMo Switchyard, a tool for intelligent model routing. These releases aim to give developers more control over AI deployment across various hardware environments.
Why it matters
These tools represent a shift toward specialized, multi-agent AI systems that optimize performance and cost for enterprise applications.
As AI shifts from chatbots to autonomous agents, open models are serving market demands for full control over where AI runs and how it’s deployed and evolves.
Today, NVIDIA is expanding its Nemotron 3 model family with Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, the highest-efficiency model in its class for long-running agentic AI workloads. This release follows Nemotron 3 Nano and reflects NVIDIA’s commitment to continually improving open models for greater accuracy and speed.
Built for specialized tasks within larger multi-agent systems, Nemotron 3.5 Lightning, a 30-billion-parameter mixture-of-experts model, helps create smarter and more efficient agentic applications.
